RULE 806
              ATTACKING AND SUPPORTING CREDIBILITY
                          OF DECLARANT

    When a hearsay statement, or a statement defined in rule
801(d)(2)(iii), (iv), or (v), has been admitted in evidence, the
credibility of the declarant may be attacked, and if attacked
may be supported, by any evidence which would be admissible for
those purposes if declarant had testified as a witness. Evidence
of a statement or conduct by the declarant at any time,
inconsistent with the declarant's hearsay statement, is not
subject to any requirement that the declarant may have been
afforded an opportunity to deny or explain. If the party against
whom a hearsay statement has been admitted calls the declarant
as a witness, the party is entitled to examine the declarant on
the statement as if under cross examination.
